How
Summarized version
Apple will likely roll out a fix for this later, but for now, you may want to memorize our instructions for force restarts above.
Headline check

The article, shortened and in plain language
If you're here because your newly updated iPhone suddenly froze while you were using it, don't panic. As 9to5Mac notes, it's not going to ruin your device permanently, and you can get out of by doing a force restart.
Since your iPhone is frozen, and you can't access the power icon, you'll have to press and quickly release the volume up button and then do the same with the volume down button.
In case you haven't encountered the bug yet and were wondering how it's preceded, it's by swiping down the Notification Center and the Control Center in quick succession.

You are reading our version, not theirs.
This is Engadget's report shortened to its most important sentences, in plainer words, with
verdicts and loaded words taken out. Plain description stays, and so do adjectives
that carry a fact, such as "former" or "federal". The reporting, the facts and the quotations
are theirs — quotations are never edited — and the indicators beside it measure
this version. Hover or tap Adjectives to see every one left in the text.
